They made the console Sears sets at least through the end of the tube-type years. The portables (color and B&W) started going Toshiba and Sanyo in the 60s, but there were also portable Warwick color sets at the same time. The newest Warwick I can think of at Sears would be a VERY few solid state Warwicks with modules in the early-mid 70s.
There IS an exception to this: There were a bunch of RCA-built color chasses in Sears TVs in the late 50s-early 60s. But the newest I ever saw was a CTC-12. And I mean a true RCA chassis; not a Warwick copy with the big round shield can on top of the HV cage.
To directly answer your question, I say probably 1973 or 4.
If you put a picture or drawing of your set, I bet I, or someone here, can tell.
